I watched several documentaries on eating a plant based diet. This motivated me and I starting searching for a cookbook that would help me and I decided on PlantYou. I’m so glad I did…it made the transition easy for me because the recipes are basic enough to get me to start cooking again and every recipe is delicious! I changed a few ingredients to suit what I like. I can’t thank you enough for the lay out of the book with all the pictures and ingredients posted above. I’m in my sixties and not on any meds and I don’t have any chronic diseases. I knew I needed to change before something happened.. where most people wait until they need to change. I can’t believe how I don’t have any cravings for sugar and I don’t have the urge to snack at night.. truly amazing. Thank you Carleigh for a wonderful book. You changed my life.

I have had this book for about 1 month. I have made several recipes in it. I am not vegan but wanted to have a more plant based diet. It was important for me to be able to incorporate some of this in my kids diet too..(11 & 18)......soooo, on saying that, I loved everything l made. The breakfast cookies were a hit with all except my 11 yr old because she didn't like the oatmeal but she is 11!!! They were all delicious. I made them smaller than the 8 the recipie stated it made and I freezed them too so in the am I would take 1-2 with a cup of coffee!! The Indian sauces were delicious but for my fussy kids, I pureed the sauce in my Vitamix and had this with rice... Guilty for throwing in a bit of chicken BUT the kids ate more veggies than otherwise. The lasagna is AMAZING! I did incorporate 1lb beef ( again fussy kids) but honestly they had no idea how much veggies they were eating!!! I also made the vegan risotto and vegan mozzarella.....the only non vegan stuff in the lasagna was the Parmesan cheese and beef......guys, my kids lapped this up! 10 min tacos was a hit also ( they had no idea they were eating mushrooms and walnuts)..... The garden Bolognese was wonderful but again, I would puree the final product to make it a sauce and add a little meat......for my kids! I was absolutely happy with the final product but at least I am able to get my kids to eat more veggies without them even knowing!!!! The rainbow rolls with peanut sauce is yummy and light. I have made many of these and have perfected rolling rice paper in my own way!!! The peanut salad was great too and the stuffed sweet potato.... So I give this the thumbs up! I loved that she had a picture for each product that went into the dish. Every recipe has a picture ( for visual people like me, that is important), easy to read. A lot of thought went into this. I am no foodie but I enjoy cooking at home and I enjoy delicious food. This book did not fail!! Absolutely recommend to those who want to experiment with plant based or just add a little more veggies to their diet or the hard core......well worth it.

I started reading this book this morning. Oh my it's beautifully written and well organized. I never thought about buying this type of book since I am a meat and potato gal but changes are needed in my life. I have read a few books but I lose interest after the first couple of pages. THIS book has kept my interest with colorful pictures and simple, down to earth recipes. Carleigh is down to earth as well. Thank you for creating this book.
